Intended Use

LawMax™ Dilator is intended for use in the dilation of the peripheral vasculature.

Device Story

LawMax™ Dilator is a percutaneous vessel dilator used to dilate puncture tunnels through skin, subcutaneous tissue, and vascular walls. The device consists of a dilator tube with a central lumen for a 0.038-inch guidewire and a proximal handle. The tube surface features a friction-reducing coating; the device is radiopaque for fluoroscopic monitoring. A built-in hemostasis valve prevents blood leakage during operation. Used in clinical settings by physicians during percutaneous catheterization procedures, the device facilitates the insertion of intravascular instruments. By expanding the access site, it enables safer and easier delivery of therapeutic or diagnostic catheters, potentially reducing trauma to the vessel wall.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance validation included primary dimension, exterior surface condition, liquid leakage, bending, solvent resistance, coating thickness, simulation, connection strength, X-ray visibility, and conical fitting tests. Biocompatibility testing included cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, acute systemic toxicity, hemolysis, thrombosis, coagulation, and pyrogen tests. Sterilization validation and package integrity were also verified.

Technological Characteristics

Device consists of a dilator tube and proximal handle. Features a central lumen for 0.038-inch guidewire and a hemostasis valve. Surface includes a friction-reducing coating. Radiopaque for fluoroscopic visualization. Sterilization method not specified. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for dilation of peripheral vasculature in patients requiring percutaneous catheterization.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A vessel dilator for percutaneous catheterization is a device which is placed over the guide wire to enlarge the opening in the vessel, and which is then removed before sliding the catheter over the guide wire.

Date of Submission: 5 Dec 2012

Proposed Device: LawMax™ Dilator

Classification: Class II, DRE, 21 CFR 870.1310

Dilator, Vessel, For Percutaneous Catheterization

Predicate Device:

Edwards Lifesciences, LLC - RetroFlex™ Dilator Kit cleared under K093554 a)

- Estech Estech Percutaneous Dilator Insertion Kit cleared under K070749 b)
Intended Use: LawMax™ Dilator is is intended for use in the dilation of the peripheral vasculature.

Device Description: LawMax™ dilator is intended to dilate the puncture tunnel of the skin, subcutaneous tissue and vascular wall. The device is compised of a dilator tube and a handle connected to its proximal end. There is a lumen in the tube center from distal end to proximal end which can accept a 0.038 inch guide wire. The tube surface is coatings which can reduce the friction during the insertion manipulation. Operator can monitor the tube using fluoroscope guidance. A handle groximal end of the tube is available to facilitate operation. There is a hemostasis valve which can be adjusted to prevent blood leaking. The specification of LawMax™ dilator is definite by the outer diameter of the cylindrical part of the tube.

Comparison with Predicate device:

The LawMax™ Dilator is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in intended use, design, specifications, packaging, and sterlization. For each predicate device there are slight variations, yet do not fundamentally change the scientific technology of the devices, which is to dilate vessels for intravascular devices. A summary of equivalency is in Section 6.
